Form 2290 and Schedule -1 must be filed for the tax period beginning on July 1, and ending on June 30, if a heavy highway motor vehicle is registered, or required to be registered, in your name. So anyone who registers a heavy highway motor vehicle in their name with a gross weight of 55,000 pounds or more must file Form 2290 and pay the tax. Trucks that are used for 5,000 miles or less (7,500 for farm trucks) are required to file a return but are excluded from paying the tax. Every truck is identified by the Vehicle Identification Number.

Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)

The VIN of your vehicle can be obtained from the registration, title, or actual vehicle. Generally, the VIN is 17 characters made up of numbers and letters. Be sure to use the VIN for the vehicle and not from the trailer.

If the vehicle identification number on your vehicle permit does not match the number on your dashboard, registering authorities will not accept it.
